Basic Auth

GET https://postman-echo.com/basic-auth

This endpoint simulates a basic-auth protected endpoint. The endpoint accepts a default username and password and returns a status code of 200 ok only if the same is provided. Otherwise it will return a status code 401 unauthorized.

Username: Qodex

Password: password

To use this endpoint, send a request with the header Authorization: Basic cG9zdG1hbjpwYXNzd29yZA==. The cryptic latter half of the header value is a base64 encoded concatenation of the default username and password. Using Qodex, to send this request, you can simply fill in the username and password in the Authorization tab and Qodex will do the rest for you.

To know more about basic authentication, refer to the Basic Access Authentication wikipedia article. The article on authentication helpers elaborates how to use the same within the Qodex app.
